二、阅读理解

“Simply avoid her，” Abby listened closely, as I continued. “If she says any more unpleasant things to you, I'll go to your teacher. I'll make sure you are never in a situation where you have to sit next to her again.”

At that time, Daisy, my eight­year­old daughter, came to join us and listened to every word. Neither of my daughters interrupted(打断) as I finished my heartfelt speech, filled with motherly wisdom. Then, as I was telling them what I thought right，Daisy's real words of wisdom came about. “Mum，” she said. “I was just thinking. Maybe Abby should be that girl's friend so that she can bear her. In that way, she can let that girl see forgiveness(原谅) and kindness through her.”

Hmm, I became the student. At that moment, I realised that although I was wearing the “mother's hat”， the “hat” certainly didn't make me right all the time. In fact, I wanted to pull that hat over my face and hide myself so that they couldn't see my embarrassed(尴尬的) look.

“Yes, that's a good point，” I said, forcing a half smile at my girls. “Abby, you deal with this situation the way you think is right.” “OK，” she said, giving me a quick hug before stepping out of the door and off to school. “Bye, Mum！” Daisy called, following her big sister to go out of the door.

I was left alone—in my slippers(拖鞋). In those following quiet moments, I was lost in thought. I did feel proud of my two amazing daughters—small in size but big in heart. Sometimes our children have great lessons to teach us—if we are willing to listen.

That lesson came more than ten years ago, and I'll never forget how much I have learned from my children.
